Science of Heat and Thermophysical Studies provides a non-traditional bridging of historical, philosophical, societal and scientific aspects of heat with a comprehensive approach to the field of generalized thermodynamics. It involves Greek philosophical views and their impact on the development of contemporary ideas. Covered topics include:

. the concept of heat . thermometry and calorimetry . early concepts of temperature and its gradients . non-equilibrium and quantum thermodynamics . chemical kinetics . entropy, order and information . thermal science applied to economy(econophysics), ecosystems, and process dynamics or mesoscopic scales (quantum diffusion) . importance of energy science and its influence to societal life
